kkuls Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Just curious how accurate the long-range forecasts TYPICALLY are here during the dry season. At home (mountainous region) we generally disregard anything beyond a day or two in advance, as weather patterns in the mountains are unpredictable (at best).

Costas2008 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Same, same but different here my friend as Thais tend to consult the fortune tellers also about the weather. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordblackader Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Next week: hot + smoggy. Every day until around Songkran: hot and smoggy. Eventually a bit of rain, then by June/ July, 1 to 2 daily downpours. Don't need a long term forecast in Chiang Mai, the weather rarely if ever changes from year to year.

I thought it was late July if at all in July some times it is. Then August when it gets serious about the rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiterussian Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 The fires are looking outstanding. Mmm mushrooms. Yum. Not long now until all the leaves have been shed. Might be a good sign - burning bonfires every other day within the CM basin must play a large role too.

kkuls Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 Crap....was hoping it was as unpredictable as home. Wishful thinking for a surprise downpour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkles Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Accuracy of long range forcasting? they have difficulty in getting the next 24 hours when the wet and cool seasons arrives. A typical forecast is "sunny with a chance of rain" which covers all possibilities. I use Accuweather, its an oxy moron, over time they probably av about 50% correct forecasting. Watch out for ants and frogs they have it nailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
